"Perstorp is now taking over total R&D responsibility for the site, which is in line with our strategic investment for R&D. We believe in the Finnish business, and coupled with our other R&D sites it provides opportunities to run a world class, customer-oriented R&D operation," says Lars Peter Lindfors, Executive Vice President Renewal & Development.
The unit in Finland has 25 employees and the site will operate under the Perstorp name from 4 October 2005, via the Finnish company Perstorp Oy.
